    Vietnam, a unwinnable war?

    They were only really united after 1800. Germany had been united under various dynasties too since Charlemagne, but not real unification till 1871. Vietnam was only united for a short time before the French bill for 'Help' in the last North/South Civil War, came due. And then promptly took over...

    List of monarchs III

    The only constructive criticism I have is for anyone reviving a long dormant list to start off with a link to the last post of the list. Other than that, it was quite enjoyable to read the entire list again and your conclusion. Welcome to the game and thanks for reviving it. The Succession...
  3. WI: No Molotov-Ribbentrop

    Hitler had set the invasion date of August 26th at the beginning of that month, when the Pact was very much uncertain. Even when the USSR delayed signing for several days, Hitler didn't change the August 26th invasion date. The only reason he postponed the invasion was because of the August 25th...

    WI: President Primakov

    Thing is, even if you assume the "Putin ordered the 1999 Russian apartment bombings as a false-flag operation to give the government a casus belli for attacking Chechnya" conspiracy theory is true there is still the fact that (after years of cross-border raids) Chechen warlords invaded...

  6. Gulf crisis 1990 : Saddam's asymmetric response

    Nah I’ve heard some claims that Saudi pilots will make mince meat out of Iraqi Air Force in 48 hrs given their superb training , then pound the Iraqi army Making the “ highway of death” look like a picnic by comparison and the Saudi navy will blockade Iraq into submission once that is done...
  7. What were the biggest tech and weapon mistakes and missed opportunities of Germany in ww2

    True on the V2, although honestly I don't know what you might have used the spare production capacity for, (tanks and planes take non existent fuel), a surface to air missile, or if that isn't good enough to harm bomber effectively, large caliber flak, underground fuel production.... A few rangy...

    Vietnam, a unwinnable war?

    I will do that It's just that I have a hard time believing your counterclaim, that HCM would just give up Communism if the West gave him a blank check to do what he wanted It would be more like a somewhat more pro-Soviet Tito's Yugoslavia, in my opinion. But I am going to go research...

  12. WI: The Netherlands Keeps South Africa

    One thing I found out when researching the American War of Independence was that the British declared was on the Dutch, not the other way around. With everything on their plate, they put considerable resources into attacking the Dutch colonies, including an expedition that was headed to the...

  14. What were the biggest tech and weapon mistakes and missed opportunities of Germany in ww2

    So a diesel powered Centurion analogue in German service in 1942? Can be done with the right POD. Regarding the FW190, maybe I just love the original. I would like to have it alongside a 2nd Gen DB605 powered fighter. I see no reason why the Germans couldn't build a fighter that was as easy to...
  15. Alternate Armoured Vehicles of Nations

    Not really. Diesel fuel is actually pretty hard to ignite (as is any aviation fuel), especially with well-designed fuel tanks. The T-55 has fuel tanks at the front that have holes to fit ammunition, thus being more efficient in volume. The AMX 30, M1 Abrams, Leclerc and Type 90 also have some...
